Just seen the Mexico 86 ITV theme on X, great intro’ that one. First WC for me, panini sticker swaps at school. Dewy eyed reminiscing aside, odd that injury prone and barely played Stones is in ahead of Maguire. Surely that’s one position you don’t want to mess about with, especially in the heat without any run of games for months. Henderson inclusion is a shocker. Roy Keane had it spot on 5 years ago.

I'm definitely cuck minded, who turns out when needed, with a very short memory, who has gone from "sack the lot" to "keep the lot", and will be renewing my ST even if the price goes up. Tonda in, up the saints.

he'd probably save a lot with his sausage fingers.

One could argue that his stubborness in style in the PL has contributed greatly to where we are now. Not sure the club has been ruined either. Bit of a mess, but not ruined.

It's only a crisis because the whole things has been massively blown out of all proportion by the media and other clubs acting holier than thou....and the ridiculous punishment that's been handed out. I'd rather the club take stock, work out next steps and deliver a statement that explains what's happened and where we go next than send out comm's every few days to appease us lot. If they're waiting on the FA to annouce charges, there is probably nothing more they can do. Unless you'd like those involved to be manning the saints store or answering phones as a punishment. Only my opinion, and appreciate it might be a minority one.

Put your phone to your f****ng ear and off speaker. Why is this now an accepted practice? Probably been mentioned but is happening in the garden next door and is driving me nuts.

“Lads, we’re not selling any of you. Grab your kit. Training starts in 15 mins” End of thread! (Other than the obvious dross)

I'd say it's a probability - but just imagine the absolute fury from everyone on opening day of the season, with 25000 saints fans singing "we've got Eckert..." - i mean, a proper siege mentality....we'd be hated by pretty much everyone.

Imagine what a non event this would have been 15-20 years ago. Even the most problematic part, the handling of an intern, would have been a nothing. Most of us born in 70s, 80s and maybe 90s, and who worked in sales or results driven businesses, were probably asked to do things we weren’t comfortable with….admittedly not “cheating” as such, but things you wouldn’t insist on a youngster doing these days.

Or a French car. Breaking down twice a week.

Potentially gone up in smoke. Regardless of how they played yesterday it wouldn’t have been a given in the final.

There’s definitely a correlation between number of alcoholic beverages consumed and level of how -fucked-offness I’m feeling watching this.

Hackney love-in nauseating. You’d think they were bringing Messi on.

Currently sat in bed with a cuppa, and just said to my wife “it’s the play off final today”. Obviously her reply was only “hmmm” Should be us lot there today. Not sure what the feeling is really. Jealousy maybe.

Are people going to watch the final tomorrow? Honestly not sure i can, probably a lengthy dog walk instead...just watching the Boro fans loving their day out, along with the non-stop spygate references, not to mention if they win it and go up.

Slight change of subject, I’ve had a beer and not sure where to mention it, but anyone else see that Hassan Kachloul is part of the BBC Wold Cup commentary team?

It’ll be on next seasons Made in Rectum

No idea...

Fair enough. Personally i think we've got a very well intentioned owner who's backed us financially to the hilt but who's surrounded himself with the wrong people who've frittered away his ££ on dross...largely.

Do you want Solak to sell up then?

Looking forward to the really testing questions at the next fans forum. About physical season tickets etc.

We would have been faced with this had we not beaten Hull in the final anyway…..just need to make sure we get top dollar for those with a few years left on their contracts.

I think if Hull win I’ll celebrate harder than if we had. What a sudden depressing end to an incredible few months in the life of a Saints fan. Another breakfast coming up in silence, with my also royally pissed off daughter.

Because a serious relationship, where love is unconditional, always has its ups and downs... but that love conquers all.

Probably been answered - so it's spying 72hrs +.....what is before then? Reconnaisance? It's a ridiculous punishment for watching some fucking training sessions, and if rumours of players seeking to sue the club if we don't win the appeal (nailed on) then where the hell are we at next season? I'll be there regardless, as i'm sure most of us will. I'd just started to really like this group of players too....just in time for them all to walk off in to the sunset holding some other clubs supporters hands. We could still have lost to Hull and that would happen anyway i suppose.
